Spring was in the air. Every morning Harry would wake up and look out the window at the lake. He loved spring; Quidditch was at its best and things looked alive again.
Hermione was doing okay, she had finally taken Harry's advice and slowed down, she had now tackled the library in Harry's office and he was sure she would read every book by summer. Sirius was now coming a lot more, checking up on both he and Remus and Hermione. Harry and Sirius would spend all night talking when he did come.
Hermione taught Remus' classes every month during the full moon. It seemed she enjoyed teaching more than Harry did. She would spend a few days working on discussions for her classes and a few treats for them.
Spring turned into summer. Usually Harry would spend hours studying not wanting summer to come but this year he didn't mind it. He didn't have to study. He had a lot to look forward this summer baby coming and his promise to see Fred and George.
After Easter the Quidditch Final came. Harry was as nervous as the Gryffindor team who was playing Slytherin. Harry couldn't believe it, the days leading to the Final, there wasn't a lot of tension between the two teams. Harry had to laugh at the memories before each Quidditch Final, as the whole Gryffindor House would escort him to classes to make sure Slytherin didn't do anything to him.
The night before the game, Harry couldn't do anything. He could only picture what it was like in the Gryffindor common room. He was very restless. He picked up his father's diary and read the page he opened to.
Dear Diary,
It had the best day today. We had the first Quidditch Match of the season. Gryffindor against Slytherin and who won? WE DID! Everyone on the team wasn't very fond of Sirius and me, I mean they thought we were just the two little 2nd years and we couldn't take the place of their star Chasers. Sirius and I scored 15 goals! I got ten, Sirius got 5 but he assisted on mine and I on his! The other Chaser got just 2 goals. We killed Slytherin 320-50. Sirius and I were treated like royalty after the game. It felt so good! Sirius and I showed everyone…and it felt so good!

"And here we go ladies and gentleman!" Joey Warren, the competetary yelled. "Here comes Gryffindor, Samas, Benton, Warren, Alda, Farrell, Morgan, Luther!"
Gryffindors cheered madly. Harry cheered the loudest. Some people waved Gryffindors flag and banners cheering on the Gryffindors.
"And Slytherin." Joey said. "All right lets go! Welcome to the Quidditch Final! Gryffindor is the favorite here they are in 1st place right now and they are the best team we've seen since Harry Potter was Seeker here."
"He isn't serious is he?" Harry asked Minerva.
"Gryffindor hasn't won since you left," Minerva told him. "You graduating was a real blow to Gryffindor."
"The game is starting!" Joey said excitingly. "The Captains are shaking hands and here we go! Warren takes Quaffle. What a talented Chaser he is, an annoying brother but a talented Chaser. Well anyway he is flying up the Pitch. He passes to Alda, she's been on the team for awhile. Very talented I might add. Probably the best Chaser there is at Hogwarts. She shoots… LAUREN ALDA SCORES!"
Lauren Alda a 7th year pumped the air and high-five Warren. She flew back into position and the game continued.
"Slytherins are in control… no now the Gryffindors, back to the Slytherins… but because of the nice work of a Gryffindor Beater Warren is back in control. He passes to Farrell who passes to Alda, who drops it to Farrell and he shots and HE SCORES!"
Harry cheered them on. "GO FARRELL!" he screamed with Hermione sighing behind him.
"All right, now penalties so far. Score is 50-0 Gryffindor really wants this! Warren has control of the Quaffle, OUCH! HEY! What was that?"
Warren had passed a Slytherin Beater, who in retaliation hit him over the head with his club.
"Stupid Slytherins," Harry roared. "GIVE HIM MORE THAN ONE!" He yelled.
The referee awarded Gryffindor two shots, which were put away easily by Warren who was all right and the game continued.
"All right, the score is 70-0, thank you to my brother and here we go. The Snitch has not been seen at all this game so keep your eyes open its bound to show!" Joey said.
The game continued Gryffindor was killing Slytherin. The Gryffindors were just so pumped that Slytherin couldn't even score. The Gryffindor Keeper came up with a few good saves but it didn't come to him a lot.
"The score is 100-0 Gryffindor," Joey told the crowd. "THE SNITCH! COME ON SAMAS!"
The Gryffindor Seeker Samas saw it. He flew after it. The Slytherin Seeker saw it too. Samas was ahead. Samas reached out… YES! HE CATCHES IT! YES! YES! GRYFFINDOR WINS THE CUP!" Joey yelled.
Gryffindors stormed to the field. Harry screamed the loudest. He reached the team first. "NICE WORK! WONDERFUL!" He screamed to the team.
The rest of the Gryffindors flooded the field. Harry found himself hugging everyone, he felt so good, so young again. Minerva held the Quidditch Cup. The team went over to accept it. Alda took it as the Captain. The 7th year looked at the two other 7th years, Samas and Morgan.
"Professor Potter," Alda said. "It seems so long ago but it's been just three years since you left. This is the first time in 3 years we have won it. We would like you to take a victory lap with us and the Cup."
"I'm just a teacher, you did all the work," Harry told them.
"I learned a lot from you Professor," Samas said. "Remember I was reserve Seeker when you were at school. I watched you fly, I tried to pick up on what you did. I think everyone here has learned something from you, in Quidditch or in life."
"Please sir, in honor of us winning the Cup and you returning to Gryffindor," Morgan said. So Harry did, he took the Cup and Samas broom and with the Team they flew around the field with everyone cheering madly. Harry looked around, Hermione and Minerva were sighing and Remus and Sirius were laughing. It was a great day.

The excitement of winning the Quidditch Final lasted about a week same as the parties. When Harry went anywhere after dinner he could hear a party going on. He would just laugh and continue on his way.
Finals were coming up. Harry didn't mind though, he didn't have to take them. He didn't have to correct any exams either because the students would be transfiguring something during the exam. He just had to look at them and grade them.
Hermione was now spending all her time reading on the sofa. She had told Harry she didn't think she could walk, she was so big. Harry knew the baby was coming soon.
And summer began. The castle was so quiet. Harry had planned to go back to Sirius's but Minerva had insisted they stay, "In Hermione's condition." She had told them. So instead of going to Sirius, Sirius came to them. He made room for himself in Remus's office and the three of them had a joyful time. Harry secretly debated whether or not to go see Fred and George like he had planned. After asking Sirius they told him he must go and they would watch over Hermione. It took about a week for Harry to go he would stop and ask why he was going and that he shouldn't but Sirius and Remus would tell him to go. Hermione had told it would be good for him to get out of the castle.
So Harry did go with directions from the twins he disapparated from Hogsmeade to town where their store was. He saw it at once, "Weasley's Wizarding Tricks." Harry laughed they had changed their name a little bit. A few kids screaming merrily came out of the store their hands filled with bags. Harry stepped inside.
The walls were filled with jokes. Harry didn't see how you could move with everything. There were Dungbombs and Stink Pellets and all the usual but then were the things the twins had invented. The Canary Creams and fake wands a few other weird stuff. Harry laughed out loud.
"Welcome to Weasleys-" it was one of the twins. They had not been in the store when Harry entered but now they came from the back room.
"Harry!" the other twin, George he guessed said.
"Good to see you old mate!" Fred hugged him.
"Hey guys," he hugged them back.
"How's Hermione?" George asked.
"She's good," answered Harry.
"And our two favorite mischief makers?" Fred grinned.
"Wonderful," Harry told them. "Both right now at Hogwats destroying it. Hermione doesn't move without her wand incase they decide to scare her." The twins laughed. "Nice place you got here."
"Business is very good," George replied looking around.
"And remember they didn't take us seriously when we said we wanted to start one," Fred said.
"Oh how I remember that," Harry laughed. Harry walked around the store looking at things. He should do his Christmas shopping for Sirius here next year. It was the biggest joke shop he had ever been in. It was better than Zonkos. Harry picked a few things out and brought them to Fred and George.
"Harry, it's on the house," Fred said.
"No it's not," Harry protested.
"It's on the house," they said putting it into a bag and gave it to him. "Enjoy."
"Thank you," Harry took the bag.
"Oh Harry we must show you!" George said remembering something. They pulled Harry into the backroom.
"Our latest creation," Fred said holding a doll up.
"Fred, George," Harry said thinking he sounded like Mrs. Weasley.
"Harry everyone wants a doll of themselves." George told him. "It's the newest thing."
"You aren't putting that in your store are you?" Harry asked seriously.
"It's even got a lightening bolt scar on its forehead," Fred pointed out.
"I'll curse both of you if you put that thing up for sale," Harry said taking his wand out of his pocket.
"Naw, we made it as a joke for you," George laughed.
"We wanted to see what you would say," Fred laughed.
Harry smiled, "Well it does look like me."
"Hey Harry, it's about lunch time, want to come along with us?"
"Sure after that though I should be heading home," Harry walked out with them.
"Then lets have a nice big lunch!"

Summer drag along. Harry was so anxious about the baby he worked constantly. He finsihed all his curriculum and work as Deputy Headmaster before his birthday. His 22nd birthday came and went. He got presents from everyone and had a very nice dinner.
The baby was going to come any day. Harry didn't leave Hermione's said. She was put in the hospital wing. Harry only left her at night when he went to bed.
It was early one morning Harry was still sleeping. Sirius entered the room and shook him awake.
"Harry… Harry," Sirius nudged him. "Wake up!"
"Too dark," he mumbled.
"Hermione… the baby!" Sirius still shook him.
"HERMIONE!" Harry yelled jumping up. He threw on robes and he and Sirius ran out. In the hospital wing Harry heard a cry… a baby's cry. Harry gasped.
Hermione saw them come in. Smiling weakly she said, "Say hello to your son, James Henry Potter."
